Iranian media outlets claim the US military is attacking in the Bushehr area of southern Iran. The reports are unverified, with no official confirmation from Washington or Tehran.
Iranian media outlets are reporting ongoing US strikes in the Bushehr area of southern Iran, as of late Tuesday morning. This is the latest in a series of unverified reports that have accumulated over the past two days. The new claims follow a day of intense activity on Sunday, Jul 12, when The Zioneer tracked multiple reports of explosions and attacks across southern Iran, including in Bushehr, Asaluyeh, Ahvaz, and Abadan — all beginning at around 02:22 Jerusalem time.
By the early hours of Sunday, the thread rapidly evolved: at 02:22 Jerusalem, reports of explosions in Bushehr and Asluyeh were confirmed by Iran's state-affiliated Press TV (version 4). Minutes later, security analysts Chananel Aviv and Yair Goldblatt reported missile launches from the Persian Gulf (version 5), and identified Bushehr airport as the target (versions 9–10). Within the same hour, civilian footage emerged from Bushehr and Bandar Abbas (version 12), and reports of fresh explosions and a second attack on the airport were logged (versions 10–11). All remained unverified by official sources — neither Washington nor Tehran offered confirmation.
The Zioneer has previously reported on a sustained pattern of US strikes in the region: on Jul 12 at 07:40 Jerusalem, the Bushehr governor confirmed four areas were hit overnight; on Jul 9, Iran accused the US and Israel of striking a military base near Bushehr; and on Jul 8, Iran claimed to have shot down a US drone over Bushehr Province — all without independent verification. The broader context includes a reported second wave of US strikes on Jun 28 (01:05 Jerusalem) and Jun 11 (02:18 Jerusalem), and footage of a strike in Konarak on Tuesday (06:46 Jerusalem).
The current reports — like all before them — remain unverified. No official statement has been issued from US or Iranian authorities on the latest claims. Details on targets, scale, or casualties are absent, and no independent corroboration has emerged.
